Description

This is a silent news report on shipyard workers from Harland and Wolff arriving at Belfast’s Grosvenor Hall for a meeting as well as shots inside of speakers on the stage before a packed auditorium. The workers in question were members of the Boilermakers’ Society union who were meeting to vote to end a long-running industrial action with thousands of jobs on the line.
